Lambing Weekend

In March we open our doors for our annual Lambing Weekend, which welcomes the local community to come and meet our newborn lambs.
As well as seeing the lambs and ewes in our Lambing Barns, you will be able to learn about the different stages of lambing and chat to our Agriculture students, who are on call throughout lambing season supporting our College Farm Manger to deliver the expected 348 new arrivals this Spring.
Our Equine and Animal Care departments will also be on hand to introduce you to some of our wider animal family including reptiles, rabbits and horses up at the Equine yard and in our Oaklands Habitat Centre. For those interested, Oaklands College staff will be available to chat about our Land based courses which include Animal Care, Horticulture and Equine Studies.
Take advantage of Donkey rides, our on-site Farmers Market, our Family games area and enjoy a wealth of hot a cold refreshments during your day. There's even the opportunity to snap a memento in our Lambing Weekend family photo booth to make it a Mother's Day to remember!
Younger guests will be able to complete our 'Farm Trail' by picking up an activity sheet at the entrance - a great way to take in some fun farm facts as your work your way round.
This event is free, but entry is by TICKET ONLY. All attendees except under 3s will require a ticket. No dogs allowed. Tickets will be available shortly.
